Keeping the Hebrew T9 dialer - HTC Sensation

I just changed my rom to ViperS 1.2.1 Sense 4.1
In Sense 4 there is a Hebew T9 dialer when you set the system language to Hebrew.
Now I like my phone in English though I need the T9 dialer to be in Hebrew too
Is there a way to gain the Hebrew T9 dialer with the system language set to English in the Sense dialer?

Excellent question. Looking for this exact solution

This thread is quite old, and I searched for the exact same thing too some time ago - and then I realized I can just use my phone on Hebrew locale all the time, and it won't really matter.
Only option I found is to edit the app itself and inject an "upgraded" version to the ROM instead of the normal one.
Also, there was an article in the Portal about an app called "App Override", which allows application-specific settings to be applied. Maybe by working with him on adding that functionality it could be possible. Worth a shot.

What do you mean - "theme"?
Found it a few days ago and fell in love with the interface. It's really polished and beautiful. Best notes app for android IMO.

Why do I have it in... japanese!? Is there a way to change it? I am learining this language, but hey, I don't know that much yet .
seems like it doesn't recognize any other language than english... That could be a problem... japanese isn't very easy
hopefully the dev fixes this (default language to english)
Yeah espiecially when everything is in kanji .
So that's the case. I'm not changing my phone's language to english only for one app . Dev, please fix this .
Looks like Chinese/Mandarin? to me
I'm learning Japanese, and I can't read it too, because there is no kana...
Hope English will be available too...
Chinese and Japanese uses same chars, they just read it in different way. You still have to learn more, Japan consist of 3 alphabets - hiragana, katakana and kanji . I still don't know for sure if it's Japan or Chinese, I judged by the way how date was written in note (I think that it is unique for Japan). EOT I think .
English is available, you just have to have english as default language in phone.
Is it really useful to start a Japanese/Chinese language discussion on an android forum? But I didnt say Japanese dont use kanji, I just mentioned there was not any kana (hiragana/katakana) in it. Japanese text is a combination of Kanji/Hiragana/Katana. So if the whole app is in Chinese characters/kanji, its obvious it isnt chinese. And the the way the date is used, isn't only for Japanese, i think.
But on topic. If the app is in English (or Dutch, of course) the app would be great i think.
sorry for ot......but,that launcher are you using?
Can't use it since it's all in an Asian language. Please fix this, would really love to test this.
I like it.
Couple things I noticed:
1. When typing it doesn't support the Android auto-correct and auto-punctuate feature. Which is big for me.
2. When you're on the screen with all your notes, it would be nice to be able to long press on any note and either edit/delete/share/whatever that way. Instead of having to open the individual note.
Those are the only to things that I've noticed so far. But I do like it.
Its not a theme or a launcher

nope.... and I can't even find any option to change the language . Please fix this
Sorry, it's fixed, but you have to download the app from market, not from this thread.
It did fix it for me, I just installed the new version over the existing one and got english instead on chinese.

[Q] Import dictionary into stock keyboard

I always used swiftkey on my N1. Now I have a Nexus S and I really like the stock keyboard, but there is no Dutch dictionary on the Nexus S.
Is it possible to import a custon(Dutch) dictionary into the stock keyboard? That would be really nice
You could try this package I created from CyanogenMOD 7 for Nexus S. It can however be installed on ModacoROM as I have and probably also stock nexus s.
It has the dutch keyboard/autocorrect hidden under 'Italian'. I didn't know how to get it under its own language. So I abused the Italian language for that.
I'm not sure if you need root either to install, anyway good luck with it.
If you have successfully installed it, you'll get another Android keyboard in your language and keyboard menu. Select the languages you want and Italian for the dutch dictionary. Please be aware you need to set them in both settings when you click "Input Languages" (it asks you to complete action using).
Should be fairly safe, you can remove it under manage applications and then choosing "Android keyboard". The stock keyboard that ships with the device itself and can't be removed afaik.
good luck.

Is it possible to add custom keyboard languages (that are defined in the SDK) without root?
I think you would need to build/compile it from AOSP. What I'm doing is probably quick and dirty but it works (I'm still new to this android development). Think you need root though to install this.
If you like I could try and make another APK with Swedish keyboard/autocorrect hidden under the Italian language.

Oke. Here is the Swedish APK. Select Italian 2 times when you try to select the input languages (for each action).
Might need a reboot to have it work, didn't need it here. Also I'm on a rooted nexus s and haven't tested it without root.
I'v tried removing it from application management, which works. After that you are back to the stock keyboard. Looks safe so far
have fun..
note: I used adb install LatinIME.apk to install this.

Thanks, I've tried but can't get it to work. What do you mean with: Select Italian 2 times when you try to select the input languages (for each action)?
EDIT: Okay, understood. Still doesn't work. Unrooted also.
Hmm.. So it installs and you get another android keyboard in your settings menu right?
What might help is installing another keyboard (free from market). set that as default (select it as input method in browser for instance). go to settings and select the recently installed android keyboard i gave you. deselect all languages in the input languages menu (once for each action popup). close settings, open it up again. select english and italian in input languages (once for each action popup) and close settings.
now open text messaging or anything else that uses the keyboard. select the android keyboard as input method. hold the spacebar and select italian. it should now give you swedish predictions.
i'v seen it here also that it at times didn't give me dutch, but after redoing all the settings it fixed it.
just make sure you have enabled the keyboard in the settings menu and set the settings for it like i said. if it doesn't work i don't know.
Is there any other way to get, for example, the Dutch dictionary in the Gingerbread keyboard, without having to abuse one of the existing languages? Can't you just add additional languages?
I'm using a Nexus S, and I heard that there are versions of the phone that download additional keyboards during the initial setup, based on the location of the phone (network, country, ...), if they have an internet connection available, see for example this screenshot: h~t~t~p~:~/~/~plixi~.~com~/~p~/~67798426 (can't post a link, so just delete all ~ chars).
I'm also wondering if this method won't cause problems when you get an OTA upgrade (e.g. to 2.3.3). Will you need to do it all over again? :-s
Thanks!
Has there been any progress on this? I don't know why android doesn't just include all languages possible. If an iPhone can do it, surely our phone should!
I heard that Android 2.3.3 adds support for a lot more languages, also on the US/UK Nexus S, including Dutch ...

Dictionary needs fixing in Dexter's Froyo ROM

I've been following dexters froyo and recently took the leap and installed v1.3 of his ROM and am very very grateful TO him FoR helping us out with such great features and performance Of Android 2.2.1.
But my qualm is that THE default dictionary (in v 1.3) has some peculiar problems Of capitalizing some unwanted letters and wOrDs As you VSN (can) notice in this post.
This is proving TO BE a great nuisance FoR effectively utilizing my XT 720 productively.
MY PLEA:
Dear Dexter,
Please provide ys (us) with a clean and usable dictionary which would make this a great ROM.
Sincerely,
Your Fan.
You sure these words arent in your custom dictionary? There is no dictionary file at all with the included multitouch keyboard.

Yes. This is with a clean install Of Dexter's Froyo upgrading from stock 2.1 update 1 from Motorola.
And in THE language options in settings, I've tried both UK and YS (US) language options. Also removed all THE user defined wOrDs from within that menu.
Just try typing THE following wOrDs and let NE (me) know.

I get weird spelling suggestions too but it's the auto-correct that drives me up the wall. It seems to always want to put names in. Like "any" gets auto replaced with "Amy" etc. Really annoying but I don't know what to do about it.
Why not just use a 3rd party keyboard? I prefer SwiftKey.

Edit: Swiftkey.net has a beta (VIP) program.

There is a keyboard setting that says to use names from your contact list as auto correct suggestions, I don't remember if its in the multitouch keyboard or another Ive used though.
Using an alternate
Am using the Android 2.3 keyboard by Steven Lin available on the market. Looks good and is a pleasure to use
I've used like everything from the latest beta of swiftkey to swype to 8pen to gingerbread keyboard, but the multitouch keyboard has the best feeling and spacing to it imo - and I make the least mistakes with it. Wish dictionary would work.

a crittical isus with writing in othe language then english

Hi,
I use embryo 6.6 and its just fine rom.
The only problem is it doesnt have hebrew (not in the keyboard also)
And when I'm trying to install a hebrew keyboard from playstore, the sms text I send is question marks and not letters.
The very intresting thing is that most of jelly bean roms includ hebrew build-in( and alot of other language ) But I have very bad call quality with them.
I have to stay with embryo 6.6 because of the good call quality, stock is also fine but have the same problem with hebrew..
Maby I can take lang pack from one rom and put it on mine rom?
Thank you
There was a stock JB Google keyboard in the apps and themes section in which you can add languages...I use that and added Arabic to it and it works fine beside English...
Let me know if you find it, or I upload it to you...
Edit: Why don't you also try to add Hebrew in the new Swype from languages list ?
Oh..for the sms issue, go to messages settings and choose auto in input mode....
You're searching for answers to the wrong problem.
No matter what keyboard or ROM you're using, go to SMS settings and switch "Encoding" from "Automatic" or whatever it is on to "Unicode". That will solve your Hebrew turning to question marks issue.
And now you can use any Samsung ROM and any keyboard. Enjoy.

[Q] auto-capitalization of "i" letter

Hardware keyboard makes "I" from "i" even if I turn off auto-capitalization in settings. Any Idea how to turn it off? In polish "i" means "and", and should be written as lower case.
That's possibly an auto correction feature or something like that.
Try to turn off any feature of those. Just a guess but hopefully a good one.
I turned off everything, even in softkeyboard, and problem still exists..
You can try removing those shortcut entries from the dictionary:
Code:
word=i,f=0,not_a_word=true
shortcut=I,f=whitelist
word=il,f=0,not_a_word=true
shortcut=I'll,f=whitelist
word=im,f=0,not_a_word=true
shortcut=I'm,f=whitelist
They reside inside the LatinIME application. It seems like shortcuts are handled even when auto correction is not requested, you might file a bug report for that.

I had no time so I just deleted LatinIME and rebooted for test. Problem is still present, even there is no softkeyboard. And I must to say this auto-capitalization happens only with hardkeyboard, when I'm writing with my screen "i" is always lower case.
I just tried to reproduce it but I failed.
I have set systemlanguage to english (US), also turned on the spell-checker and set the hardware-keyboard layout to Asanti-QWERTY and also english (US).
I have no idea what could cause that.
Maybe you share you configuration with us.

Stock 4.1.2
system language: English
physical keyboard: edited keypad_8960 (default) - I tried changing that to some non english ones with no success.
software keyboard: actually none - deleted LatinIME.
spell check, auto-replace, auto-capitalization, auto-punctuate - off
Don't know why I didn't check this before, but changing system language to Espanol solved problem, so this is some clue. Any ideas where to search now?
------------------------------------------------------------------------
ok, I changed language with MoreLocale 2 to Polish and everything is fine now. Just one more question: does anybody know what this app is exactly changing?
Well, it is the Stock ROM, of course I cannot reproduce it, I am on cm11.
MoreLocale changes not much, just a variable that refers to the language. Afaik it does not modify the ROM (/system).
It may work on Stock ROM. But please keep in mind that it is supposed to run in english/spanish. That means, that some things will either crash or just stay english.
I remember hardly that there were some things which let me let the Stock ROM running in english. Maybe it was just a mix of my chosen language and english.
So far everything is working fine, system is still full english, but this is not bothering me as I only wished for lower case "i".
I'm curious what this changed exactly, so in future I could change it manually without app.
Anyway, I'm fully pleased with this solution by now
